Hang (our friend from Mexico) is over in Vietnam to see her family. It was great to catch up and see how much her little baby has grown. See is so cute and loves playing with anyone. She is really beautiful - all the best features from mum and dad. Maz and Ben got in some practice as their baby will be here soon! Marc - the baby's dad is over this week and it's Ben's 30th birthday coming up so the weekend might be a big one. It's all so exciting.One more weekend until we go back to the UK. So busy at work I can't wait till our holidays. The kids are getting really cranky. I hope I have a better week than my last - they were all arguing or being so silly and my patience was running out.I had a really good healthy week (trying to get in shape for Seonaid's wedding - it's good to have a goal). I have been eating super healthily - no take outs at all - and made it to the gym 5 times! A record for me. I'm actually enjoying it as I have loads of energy and feel wide awake. Had a great massage today - a gift certificate from one of my kids whose mum owns a spa. So good I booked in for another next weekend. Hopefully another good week ahead on the health front!

We went down to the beach for a relaxing weekend. Did nothing but laze by the pool, eat and sleeep. It was really nice and I feel very well rested but very reluctant to go back to school. Only 2 more weekends now then we'll be on holiday again and back to the UK. We were freezing last night and had to put on thick jumpers. We looked at the temperature and it was 25C. We are going to seriously feel the cold back home!

Here are a few pictures from last weekend. We had a party up on our roof terrace for our friend's joint 70th birthday (30 and 40). We had free flowing beer all night so it was quite messy. I didn't have the energy to add photos the Sunday after!

This week has gone really quickly and I really haven't got anything done! I have been good by going to the gym and eating healthily so am quite satisfied! We had a nice Friday night with our 2 friends who also were in Mexico with us. Maz is getting quite pregnant now and is really hefting around a big baby now and she's not even due until June. It's very exciting!

Gareth and I had a lazy morning. We took a wonder round town in the markets then had lunch in a shady restaurant. A really nice day! It's our friend's 30th and 40th birthdays today so they are throwing a big party on the roof terrace of our apartment. Should be a good night. Hopefully I'll have some photos tomorrow.
